"Moreover, the association just received news."
"In the next decade, there will be two extraordinary treasures born in the Xuanhuang Realm."
"One of them is here in the Misty Cloud Sea. It's a Cang Hai Pearl, containing boundless oceanic power."
"The other is in the Guanglan Province. It's the Hundred Thousand Great Mountain Cauldron, nurturing endless mountain ranges with profound mysteries."
Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi's bodies couldn't help but tremble slightly.
"Extraordinary treasures?"
Treasures of this level were something they could only dream of.
"If you are willing, the Federation can help you obtain these two treasures." Ji Shaoli solemnly said.
Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi were dumbfounded on the spot, suspecting they had misheard.
The two brothers...
What qualifications did they have?
As if Ji Shaoli could see through their thoughts, he patted their shoulders, "You don't need to underestimate yourselves. Although those self-proclaimed geniuses may have better family backgrounds and talents than you, what our Federation values most is character!"
"The aspirations of you two are no weaker than any genius I've seen in my life!" Ji Shaoli stated firmly.
Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi were at a loss for words.
Am I really this strong?
This thought crossed their minds.
"I believe that if you were given a sufficiently high starting point, you would be able to contend with those geniuses!" Ji Shaoli said in a deep voice.
"Are you willing?" he asked again.
Although they still couldn't believe that such a good thing would happen to them, thinking about it the other way around, what did they have to lose right now?
If they really had the chance to obtain extraordinary treasures...
Even if they died, they wouldn't have any regrets, right?
The two men who had struggled in the wilderness for half their lives immediately nodded repeatedly.
"If we can establish our foundation with extraordinary treasures, I will definitely devote myself to the Federation!" Kou Hong sincerely declared.
Dao Xuanzi made a similar commitment.
"Good! Then this matter is settled." Ji Shaoli immediately made a decision.
Casually, he allocated the once highly prized extraordinary treasures to Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi.
The Cang Hai Pearl was an old acquaintance of Li Fan.
The Hundred Thousand Great Mountain Cauldron was also something Li Fan had investigated and predicted to appear around this time.
Both of them were quite valuable.
However, as his cultivation progressed, these extraordinary treasures were no longer of any use to him.
Rather than being seized by the Immortal League cultivators, it was better to use them to strengthen the power of the Multiverse United Federation.
As for why he chose Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi...
It was purely an impulsive decision by Elder Li, just thinking about it.
After all, for him, whether it was a peerless genius or Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi, who were trapped in the foundation-building stage for their entire lives, there was not much essential difference.
"In fact, the talents of these two are not too bad. At least, based on their performance in the battle in the Great Xuanjing City, their actual combat power is much better than ordinary cultivators."
"Since the destiny of their current life has deviated so much, I'll just add some fuel to the fire and see where their limits are!" Ji Shaoli thought so while acting as their protector.
He took out various treasures to minimize the dangers during their process of breaking the core and rebuilding it.
To be honest, the appearance of these two in front of Li Fan in this life was somewhat unexpected.
And now, in the Xuanhuang Realm, things that could bring some surprise to Li Fan...
There weren't many left.
Therefore, today's attempt came about.
However, for Kou Hong and Dao Xuanzi, this day marked a complete change in their destiny. It was merely an attempt by Ji Shaoli's avatar, who had been bored on Haixuan Island for a long time.
As for the results, he didn't care at all.
What Li Fan truly cared about was only himself.
At this moment, in the Spirit Wood Realm, Li Fan's main body's consciousness was settling down, merging with the Five Elements Grand Immortal Realm.
Feeling the surging power of the Five Elements, he attempted to assimilate it into one place.
"The unity of the Five Elements, the boundless void; their power is endless, and the soul is indestructible."
"With the endless power of the Five Elements, it's enough to elevate my 'Infinite Abundance and Void Law' to a completely new level."
"It fills the gap in my cultivation."
Under Li Fan's skillful control, the power of the Five Elements perfectly merged into one.
Forming a previously unseen and unknown energy.
Li Fan's soul, as if hungry for a long time, suddenly sensed the aroma of food.
Waves of hunger came, making Li Fan almost think that the side effect of the 'Hunger' mantra was appearing again.
However, he quickly identified that it was a natural reaction of his soul sensing something highly beneficial to itself.
Without hesitation, he swallowed this mysterious energy like a whale sucking in water.
Similar to the feeling when he swallowed the Yima before, his soul felt like it was immersed in a hot spring, feeling warm all over.
However, the difference between the two lies in the fact that the effect of 'Yima' was only temporary.
After digestion, the nourishment for the soul disappeared without a trace.
But this Infinite Abundance and Void Law, as long as Li Fan provided the transformation of the Five Elements continuously, it would never stop!
If taking Yima was like taking a hot bath, and the water temperature quickly dropped.
Then this Infinite Abundance and Void Law was like a hot spring that maintained its temperature.
In constant nourishment, Li Fan's soul quickly grew to a level where he could almost discern it by himself.
If the previous protection formed a defense in the Great Xuan, it was just like putting on an outer coat for the soul.
But now, with the far-reaching transformation of the Infinite Abundance and Void Law, Li Fan felt that his soul no longer needed any external protection.
Relying solely on itself, it was as strong as steel.
No matter how the external winds and rains battered, he stood firm!
"Perhaps my soul strength was too low before, that's why the effects of cultivation are so significant."
But soon after, Li Fan felt that the Infinite Abundance and Void Law had started to decay, and he had a realization.
"The Immortal League is too focused on soul-related cultivation techniques. Without relying on the Yifa Jade, even if I were to reincarnate countless times, I wouldn't have found many excellent ones."
"But after today, everything will be different."
Li Fan closed his eyes, immersed in the cultivation of the Infinite Abundance and Void Law.
He hadn't felt the joy of rapid cultivation for a long time.
"I wonder if the function will change as my soul grows?" A thought suddenly surfaced in Li Fan's mind.
...
After Li Fan woke up from seclusion, the first thing he tried was the so-called indestructibility of the soul in the Infinite Abundance and Void Law.
In his memory, there was a secret technique that temporarily greatly increased cultivation by burning one's own soul: the 'Soul Burning Technique.'
Without any hesitation, Li Fan decisively activated it.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 882: Soul Ignition and Fusion of Dao
"Boom!"
Li Fan felt as if his soul was instantly immersed in magma.
The extreme heat seemed to completely burn away his soul.
Enveloped in endless radiance, Li Fan felt his soul dissolving and disappearing at a terrifying speed.
However, corresponding to this, the burned-out soul turned into a mysterious nourishment.
The Five Elements Grand Immortal Realm trembled slightly, and then a layer of blood-colored brilliance appeared in each of the different worlds within the Immortal Realm.
Under this blood glow, many strange and beautiful phenomena emerged in the Immortal Realm's sky.
What was even more terrifying was that within the Immortal Realm, the circulation of the Five Elements' power suddenly doubled. The violent catalytic effect had no upper limit, further causing Li Fan's soul to burn rapidly!
A sense of imminent crisis surged to his heart. Li Fan understood that if he didn't use the "Infinite Abundance and Void Law" to stop the Soul Burning technique before his soul was completely burned, he would truly die!
Suppressing the urge to stop, Li Fan silently activated the "Infinite Abundance and Void Law."
An invisible vortex appeared at the intersection of the Five Elements Grand Immortal Realm, evenly drawing in the violent power of the Five Elements.
The Five Elements returned to one, and in the void, the power of abundance and emptiness was born.
The originally exposed seabed, like emerging after the tide retreated, was instantly swept over by surging seawater.
The part of Li Fan's soul that had disappeared was unexpectedly restored under the nourishment of this power of abundance and emptiness!
Although it was quickly burned again by the "Soul Burning" secret technique, the unceasing power of the Five Elements of abundance and emptiness made this part of the soul indestructible, like wild grass burning but never completely consumed!
Due to the effect of the Soul Burning secret technique, Li Fan's appearance was also shrouded in a faint blood light.
It looked extremely ferocious, frightening people.
After a long time, Li Fan gradually adapted to the constantly changing soul in the states of burning and abundance and emptiness.
After checking, not only did the power he could call upon almost double, but even his thinking became much more active.
The amplification brought about by burning the soul could be described as all-encompassing!
"This is just burning the outermost part of the soul. If I continue to use the more concentrated and pure central part of the soul as fuel..."
"The amplification effect will double again!"
Li Fan closed his eyes and sensed for a moment.
"With the recovery speed of my current Infinite Abundance and Void Law, it's enough to permanently maintain the initial state of soul burning."
"If the middle-stage soul burning lasts for a long time, it may cause some damage to the soul. It will require some time for slow recovery afterward."
"The ultimate soul burning..."
"Isn't necessary."
Li Fan, who had expanded his strength, suddenly felt eager to try again.
With a thought, Tianyang appeared in front of him, his eyes full of fighting spirit.
Through the newly connected Soul Yin Realm channel entrance, Li Fan and Tianyang once again appeared in the vast void corridor.
Without any reservation, Tianyang took the initiative.
Since losing to his senior brother last time, he had been thinking about winning back.
Unfortunately, Li Fan had always been avoiding a direct confrontation.
Now that he finally had the opportunity, Tianyang also noticed the great progress in his senior brother's strength.
So, he attacked with all his might.
Manipulating the space around Li Fan, he attempted to cut Li Fan's body with the power of fragmentation.
However, to his surprise, the effective method from their last encounter had no effect this time!
A strange blood color enveloped Li Fan's body outside his physical body.
Even though the space was shattering, it had no impact, and he stood firm in the shattered space.
"Flesh and soul, perfectly fused."
"All things are invincible..."
Li Fan squinted, feeling the surge of his own power.
His figure flickered, and in the next moment, he appeared next to Tianyang.
Countless blood threads surged from his body, like millions of blood-colored long dragons, roaring and lashing at Tianyang.
At the same time, a silver light flashed in his eyes, instantly setting up a formation around him, blocking any possibility of Tianyang escaping.
Faced with Li Fan's overwhelming attack, Tianyang's expression changed.
After finding that he couldn't dodge, his entire body turned into a black mass, colliding with countless blood threads.
"Boom!"
A tremendous roar echoed, and with each collision, the black mass representing Tianyang violently trembled.
Chapter 882: Soul Burning Collides with Dao
The consumed dimness diminished.
On the contrary, Li Fan's side was filled with endless, violent blood-red, showing no signs of weakening his momentum.
With even spare energy, he revealed his figure, watching Tianyang struggling with interest.
Countless blood threads completely enveloped Tianyang, forming a circular blood cocoon around him. This left him with no way to escape, only able to cope with the situation in a sorry state.
With the continuous support of the spiritual power from the Five Elements Grand Immortal Realm, Li Fan could maintain the strongest state against his opponent.
In contrast, Tianyang, who was sealed, became weaker and weaker.
It wouldn't take long before he would be beaten to death by Li Fan.
Finally, Tianyang conveyed a plea for mercy.
After continued bombardment, Li Fan finally stopped, still feeling unsatisfied.
"Junior Brother, how about it? Still not convinced?" Li Fan asked with a light laugh.
Tianyang muttered, "Convinced. Senior Brother, you are indeed stronger."
Li Fan burst into hearty laughter.
Purely overpowering someone was much more satisfying than winning through cleverness.
The countless blood threads retracted into his body, but the state of Soul Burning was not lifted. It just slightly restrained the outward manifestations.
Although it no longer looked like before, there was still a faint blood glow. Li Fan still appeared somewhat sinister.
"As long as it's not at the level of Mr. Bai, ordinary Harmony Dao cultivators, even if they join forces in three to five strikes or even take turns fighting, may not outlast me."
"This is without me using various divine techniques."
After the battle with Tianyang, Li Fan, who had roughly understood his upper limit of strength, nodded slightly.
"It's time to visit the Empire."
Li Fan's eyes flickered.
Taking Tianyang with him, he found the entrance to the Empire's small world with ease.
Then, they rushed all the way and soon arrived outside the Empire.
Without concealing his mighty aura, Li Fan had long been sensed by Xiaoqing and Xiaohong. They were now waiting with serious expressions.
"Senior..." Xiaoqing looked at Li Fan, his body emanating an evil aura, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes as he tentatively spoke.
"I am an envoy of the Universal Alliance. Your small world here has been requisitioned!" Li Fan declared coldly.
Xiaoqing and Xiaohong's expressions changed drastically.
Even if the opponent exuded a faint Harmony Dao aura, saying they wanted to conquer the Empire with such a simple statement was too arrogant!
"Imperial Guard!" Xiaoqing transmitted his voice secretly, suppressing his anger, and asked again, "What Universal Alliance? We've never heard of it. Senior's actions..."
Li Fan sneered, "It seems that you're still harboring illusions."
"Very well, let me show you the true power!"
Before the words fell, the shadow of the Five Elements Grand Immortal Realm enveloped the Empire.
Under the influence of Soul Burning, it resembled a blood moon interweaving with five wheels, extremely eerie!
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 883: Remaking the Imperial Turning Wheel
The entire small world of the Empire trembled under this terrifying power.
The ocean below churned with towering waves.
The cities built on the body of the Nine-Headed Scarlet Snake trembled ceaselessly. It seemed like they might fall from the sky at any moment.
What shocked Xiaoqing and Xiaohong even more was that under this pressure, not to mention the exotic beasts controlled by the Imperial Guard, even they were filled with fear and had no thoughts of resistance!
"The power gap is too huge. I'm afraid releasing that fusion beast wouldn't be a match for this person!"
"If we resist forcibly, with just a thought from the opponent, the entire Empire could be easily destroyed."
Xiaoqing and Xiaohong exchanged glances, their eyes filled with helplessness and reluctance.
"We can only feign submission for now and find a way later."
This was their current plan.
"Senior, we are willing to surrender." Xiaoqing bit her silver teeth, bowed, and said.
"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you're thinking." Seeing this, Li Fan retracted the shadow of the Grand Immortal Realm.
His gaze swept back and forth on Xiaoqing and Xiaohong, saying, "It's better to give up those little tricks of yours. The Universal Alliance has been observing you for a long time."
"I'm well aware of all your so-called trump cards."
"Even if Emperor One comes in person, I'm not afraid. Not to mention its clumsy imitation."
Li Fan's words were arrogant, but to Xiaoqing and Xiaohong, who didn't know Li Fan's true strength, it was shocking. They suddenly raised their heads.
Li Fan's profound gaze made them feel an icy chill in their hearts.
The fusion beast of the myriad images was an absolute secret of the Empire.
Only the emperors of past generations and the two of them knew about it.
However, this unknown powerful figure from the Universal Alliance actually knew about it as well?
Didn't that mean they had no secrets in the eyes of the other party?
Moreover, they had no idea when the leak occurred.
A sense of despair and fear surged in their hearts.
Even when they were in the Beast Taming Sect a long time ago, facing a strong expert of the Transcendent Realm, they had never felt so powerless.
"Let's go, take me to the Empire's treasury." Seeing that he had struck enough, Li Fan casually ordered.
With the situation as it was, Xiaoqing and Xiaohong had no intention of resisting.
They could only obey Li Fan's command.
Soon, Li Fan returned to the Empire's treasury, which contained countless treasures and information.
It was no different from what he had seen in the previous life.
After a simple stroll and checking the condition of the myriad images fusion beast, Li Fan reached his limit.
"Hand over the insights into the 'Myriad Beasts Turning Wheel' that Xu Ke studied back then." Li Fan turned around, staring at Xiaoqing and Xiaohong, and said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing this, the two birds couldn't maintain their calm.
"Who are you?" Xiaoqing's beautiful eyes were full of horror, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
To know the name of their owner, Xu Ke, and even know about his research on the Myriad Beasts Turning Wheel, along with the four words "Universal Alliance," an idea flashed in Xiaoqing's mind.
"Beast Taming Sect?"
Seeing the shocked face of the opposite party, Li Fan revealed a sinister smile.
"What, do you want to resist? Well, I'll help you fulfill that wish."
"Tsk tsk tsk, that kid Xu Ke, if he knew about your death, he would be very upset." Li Fan grinned strangely.
Xiaoqing and Xiaohong hurriedly said, "Senior, there's a misunderstanding..."
"Wait, Senior, what do you mean?" They stared blankly at Li Fan.
"You guessed right. That kid Xu Ke is still alive." Li Fan snorted.
This news was too shocking. Xiaoqing and Xiaohong could hardly control their emotions and almost fell.
"Enough, don't dawdle. Death..."
"Or submission!"
Looking at Li Fan's somewhat impatient expression, Xiaoqing and Xiaohong felt a sense of unease.
"We..."
"Willing to submit." Xiaoqing bowed her head.
After hesitating for a moment, she reluctantly handed over a jade pendant engraved with a blue phoenix.
This jade pendant was originally Xu Ke's belonging, and she had been carrying it with her for years.
Handing it over now, her eyes were filled with reluctance.
At the same time, the figure of Xu Ke vaguely appeared before her eyes.
During the moment of her absent-mindedness, Li Fan had already read the contents of the jade pendant.
"Myriad Beasts Turning Wheel..."
"Indeed, it's worthy of being the supreme treasure of the Beast Taming Sect, mysterious to this extent."
After the Beast Taming Sect migrated to the small world for refuge, they selected elite disciples to research the Myriad Beasts Turning Wheel. They aimed to find a method to control demonic beasts without practicing the true technique of Beast Taming.
Li Fan didn't know if they ultimately succeeded.
However, after Xu Ke fled, he had independently researched the "Unity Technique" to manipulate the exotic beasts in the Empire's small world.
Li Fan had long been aware of the Unity Technique.
What he was truly interested in was the mystery of the Myriad Beasts Turning Wheel.
Xu Ke, being recognized by Mister Bai and founding the lineage of the Empire, was indeed a rare talent.
The details recorded in the jade pendant about the Myriad Beasts Turning Wheel exceeded Li Fan's expectations.
"With such detailed information, when the Medicine King's True Cauldron returns, I might be able to forge a weakened version of the Myriad Beasts Turning Wheel."
Although it would be some time before the return of the Medicine King Sect, Li Fan had already arranged tasks for them in advance.
Looking at Xiaoqing's lost expression, Li Fan smiled and threw the jade pendant back to her.
"I know about your plan to escape from the Profound Yellow Realm."
"But I can clearly tell you, that's a path of self-destruction."
"Beyond the boundless void, the dangers are numerous. It surpasses the Profound Yellow Realm by far."
Li Fan sighed slightly, then his expression turned serious. "Join us, the Universal Alliance, counterattack the cultivation realm, and reclaim the Profound Yellow Realm. That's the only chance for survival!"
Hearing Li Fan's words, Xiaoqing became even more convinced of her judgment.
This so-called Universal Alliance was indeed formed by the ancient sects that escaped to various small worlds during ancient times.
"Your place is a bit weak, but it has some unique features."
Li Fan commented briefly and then assigned tasks to them. "For example, the spiritual energy synthesis technique is very useful for many small worlds without spiritual energy."
"However, the efficiency is still too low."
"Even if you cultivate exotic beasts with all your efforts, all dedicated to slaughter, it won't meet the needs of many small worlds."
"So..."
Feeling Li Fan's gaze, Xiaoqing and Xiaohong shivered.
"At any cost, upgrade the spiritual energy synthesis technique."
"I'll give you three years. After three years, I will come to inspect."
"If the results satisfy me, there will be rewards."
"Otherwise..."
"Waste of life is also a waste of resources. It's better to die early."
Li Fan chuckled wickedly again, his words filled with a chilling killing intent.
Chapter 884: Alliance for Array Refinement
Xiaoqing and Xiaohong's hearts trembled.
Because they could naturally tell that the sinister senior's words were not empty promises.
If they couldn't fulfill his request, he really would kill people!
"Spiritual energy synthesis..."
The discovery that the nuclei inside exotic beasts could generate spiritual energy was purely accidental.
To make a breakthrough within three years, however, was quite challenging.
During Xiaoqing's contemplation with a furrowed brow, Li Fan suddenly spoke, "Hehe, I've always been straightforward in my actions! To avoid anyone harboring illusions..."
The next moment, Li Fan appeared above the Empire.
Thousands of blood-red threads extended from him, whistling as they flew to every corner of the Empire's capital.
In just a moment, they returned.
However, at the end of each thread was a commoner of the Empire, each one bound.
Densely packed like dark clouds, they covered the sky.
This extremely terrifying scene almost caused many people below to faint on the spot.
The red threads contracted, and those unlucky souls couldn't even utter a cry; they were all suppressed by Li Fan into the Five Elements Great Dao inside him.
Li Fan didn't simply take the lives of these commoners.
Instead, he intended to give them to Yin Shangren to use as materials for researching the Immortal-Mortal Miasma.
After fiercely intimidating the Empire, Li Fan searched a bit more before leaving satisfied.
As for the red string left by Mister Bai for Xu Ke...
Li Fan didn't take it for now.
If needed, it could guide a certain "fated person" to retrieve it.
As for his true form...
Forget it.
After the oppressive demon lord Li Fan left, the people of the Empire felt a sense of surviving a catastrophe, holding their heads and crying.
Xiaoqing, after checking the list of missing persons, felt a sudden shock.
Because she horrifyingly discovered that the group taken away by the senior from the Universal Alliance were all conservative nobles of the Empire.
They usually didn't get along well with the royal family, hindering various reform plans.
Now, this group had all been taken away.
They could now coordinate all the forces of the Empire to solve the issue of upgrading the technology for synthesizing spiritual energy.
"This is definitely not a coincidence but a warning."
"To think that he understands the Empire to this extent..."
Xiaoqing's heart chilled, and any thoughts of resistance vanished.
She hastily summoned the technological backbone of the Empire to discuss this critical issue related to the future fate.
Meanwhile, after returning from the Empire's small world, Li Fan, with the help of Tianyang, moved the entrance of the spatial channel to the Spiritwood Realm.
Then, he personally set up an array at the exit location to prevent the Empire's personnel from escaping.
As for the Empire's lawbreakers who were stranded outside, the possibility of them finding a way back home in the future was not within Li Fan's consideration.
After completing all this, Li Fan took a trip to Yin Yin Island.
While handing over those commoners to Yin Shangren, he also inquired about the progress of his research.
"It's almost done, almost."
Yin Shangren's expression was somewhat strange, lacking the joy of an imminent breakthrough in his research.
Instead, he seemed a bit absent-minded, restless.
Even in his conversation with Li Fan, he responded with one or two sentences.
Seeing this, Li Fan decided not to disturb him further.
Returning to the Spiritwood Realm, Oudaozi and Shang Tianci came to visit together.
After several years of unremitting hard work, the headquarters of the Universal Alliance has finally taken shape.
However, due to Li Fan's instructions, he personally had to make the final decision when laying the foundation.
So, they came together to ask for Li Fan's opinion.
Li Fan's divine sense swept across the Spiritwood Realm.
Around the central Spiritwood, towering buildings covered nearly a tenth of the Spiritwood Realm's area.
If there were visitors, the first thing they would see is a towering black jade gate tower, reaching a height of ninety-nine zhang.
The plaque on the gate tower was still empty, awaiting Li Fan's inscription.
Behind the gate tower was a long and wide road.
The road surface was overall green, just like the one in front of the Law Protector Hall of the Wanxian League, entirely made of Spirit Stone.
Walking on it sealed off spiritual energy.
Combined with the airspace prohibition array, it could force visiting cultivators to move like ordinary people, slowly walking the path to an audience.
At the end of the long road was a circular hall.
The central part of the hall was currently empty. Li Fan planned to place the mysterious heavenly deity statue there.
This would give all newcomers a small sense of mystery and shock.
As the central point of the circular hall, roads branched out in all directions, leading to various buildings with different functions.
Such as the welcoming hall, conference hall, martial arts field, and the gathering place for members of the Universal Alliance, among others.
All these buildings were not closely packed together. They were interspersed with different scenic views, creating a breathtaking landscape.
Outside the headquarters of the Universal Alliance, it was artificially constructed to resemble a "miniaturized Xuanhuang Realm" based on the appearance of the Xuanhuang Realm.
Using the distinctive landmarks of various states collected in Shang Tianci's Tianjing Gourd, the scenic views of the Xuanhuang Realm were roughly replicated in the Spiritwood Realm.
With a single glance, Li Fan saw the large lake of Luoyan State, the nine mountains of Jiushan State, and the familiar Cloud Sea from his previous life, among others.
In Oudaozi's design, he deliberately raised the terrain where the Alliance headquarters was located, making the central area of the Spiritwood Realm higher than the surrounding areas.
Looking from a distance, it seemed as if the Universal Alliance was overlooking and suppressing the Xuanhuang Realm.
...
"Good! Good!"
Indeed, this collaborative effort was praiseworthy, and Li Fan became more delighted the more he looked.
"It's not in vain that I went to such lengths to bring Oudaozi here. I even wasted a True Temptation Fruit..."
"It's worth it!"
If he had done it himself, it would certainly not have been built so beautifully.
"Not bad, I'm very satisfied!" Li Fan nodded.
Shang Tianci showed a happy expression, while Oudaozi looked proud.
"Senior, when can we hold the foundation-laying ceremony?" Shang Tianci quickly asked.
Li Fan pondered for a moment and replied, "No rush. I'll let you know."
Saying that, Li Fan turned into a rainbow light and flew to the sky above the Spiritwood Realm.
Looking at the brand new Spiritwood Realm below, Li Fan's mind settled as he felt the array materials transported here earlier.
"It's time to begin the initial Array Refinement."
"To turn the entire small world into a magic treasure is not something that can be accomplished in a short time."
"Especially with the nourishment of a large number of heavenly treasures and earth treasures, the scale of this Spiritwood Realm seems to be undergoing a transformation..."
"But as long as I first engrave the arrays on the world's surface, regardless of how it grows in the future, it's destined not to escape the shackles."
Li Fan contemplated.
"It's Array Refinement, and at the same time, it's the Alliance's protective array."
"Instead of worrying about maintenance in the future, it's better to get it done in one go."
After some thought, to create perfection in this place as much as possible, Li Fan finally made up his mind.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 885: Formation Envelops the Small World
A faint light flickered in Li Fan's mind, and after a moment, the shining End Disintegration Disc appeared in Li Fan's hands.
It hadn't been long since the last time Li Fan cut off a piece.
It seemed that the End Disintegration Disc had not completely recovered its vitality.
"Originally, there were nine discs competing, and then they merged into one."
"In other words, this End Disintegration Disc can, at most, be divided into nine pieces again."
"The ability to break formations won't be affected, but the power is fixed at the moment of division."
"But going forward, the speed of self-evolution through calculation will be much slower."
"However, it doesn't matter. As long as, every once in a while, I synchronize the calculation results of the mother disc, it's fine."
Li Fan's thoughts flashed, and then his fingers, like iron swords, fiercely chopped down at the Disintegration Disc.
"Boom!"
In the slight tremor of the End Disintegration Disc, a thin slice was cut off.
After collecting the increasingly fragile mother disc, Li Fan held the slice of the Disintegration Disc in his palm.
Then, from his body, thousands of bloodlines flew to various places in the Spiritwood Realm.
This strange scene instantly attracted the attention of all living beings in the Spiritwood Realm.
All the tree-people races dared not look directly, immediately lowering their heads.
Only cultivators like Tianyang and Shang Tianci observed Li Fan with curiosity.
Countless bloodlines, like brushes, painted a massive array on the ground of the Spiritwood Realm.
Originally, covering a realm with such a large array would take at least a few years for an ordinary Nascent Soul stage formation master to barely complete.
However, with Li Fan's powerful computational power supported by the Daoist Stone in his mind, he blossomed multiple arrays simultaneously.
He took on the role equivalent to hundreds of formation masters, simultaneously arranging the array.
At a visible speed, a large-scale formation gradually took shape on the ground of the Spiritwood Realm.
"Can formations be arranged like this?"
This made those cultivators who didn't understand formations stare in shock, watching this scene absentmindedly.
The formation Li Fan was currently carving on the Spiritwood Realm had never appeared in the Xuanhuang Realm before. It was a completely new formation created by Li Fan himself.
The core referenced top-tier formations such as Wanli Mountains and Rivers, Tianyuan Life Transformation, and Tianxuan Soul Locking.
Originally, Li Fan wanted to incorporate the essence of reversing life and death into it.
However, just as he thought of it, a sense of crisis inexplicably surged in his heart, so he decisively gave up.
However, in seven days, the core foundation of the formation was already established.
Li Fan threw out the Disintegration Disc fragment.
With a burst of intense radiance, the fragment disappeared in mid-air, integrating into the core of the grand formation.
"With the End Disintegration Disc as the core, we can achieve complete surveillance and control of the Spiritwood Realm, similar to the Tianxuan Soul Locking."
"It can also endlessly strengthen the protective formations with infinite methods."
"Until it becomes as solid as golden soup."
Li Fan's eyes flickered.
With the Disintegration Disc entering the formation, the speed of the formation taking shape on the Spiritwood Realm's ground increased by a thousand times or more in an instant.
If it was like a child's hand-drawn before, it was now like a printer.
Before the onlookers could react, the ground of the Spiritwood Realm roared and trembled.
A burst of light erupted from the ground, reaching the sky.
Under this dazzling light, all the creatures in the small world were forced to close their eyes.
When they opened their eyes again, all the strange phenomena had disappeared without a trace.
But at this moment, the Spiritwood Realm was completely different from before.
For those with weaker cultivations, it was not noticeable.
However, cultivators like Tianyang, who were in the Unity Dao realm, couldn't help but look around at the surroundings and the sky in confusion.
It felt like countless eyes were staring at him, making him uncomfortable.
But Li Fan's hearty laughter drew Tianyang's attention.
Li Fan had already retracted countless blood threads and landed in front of the 99-zhang-high gate of the Universal Alliance.
With his hand as a brush, Li Fan skillfully carved the four characters "Universal Alliance" under the black jade plaque, creating a lively and elegant inscription. The strokes flowed like dragons and snakes, completing the characters in one go. At the moment the brush was lifted, the Spiritwood Realm reacted with a slight and continuous tremor.
Li Fan carefully examined his calligraphy, a sense of pride overflowing.
In the sky of the Spiritwood Realm, the projection of the four characters "Universal Alliance" inexplicably appeared.
Under the leadership of the female chief, the tree people bowed and worshiped.
All the cultivators also fell to the ground, looking up at the scene in the sky.
With Li Fan's brushstroke, the construction of the Universal Alliance headquarters was officially completed.
Most of the main structure was already perfect, with only minor touch-ups needed.
"Spectacular indeed, but this vast headquarters is too empty."
"If outsiders see it so deserted, they might have ideas."
Li Fan rubbed his chin, and in the next moment, he had an idea.
With a snap of his fingers, after a while, figures appeared successively in various locations of the alliance headquarters! They moved in haste, appearing very busy.
Some of them even talked to each other as if they were real people.
This added a lot of vitality to the originally cold Universal Alliance.
"Well, it looks much better this way."
"Although it has a bit of self-deception, it doesn't matter. Soon, this place will truly become lively."
Li Fan showed a satisfied smile.
"Elder..."
Just as Li Fan was lost in fantasy, Shang Tianci came to him a bit nervously.
Li Fan thought he wanted to apply to go find Lin Ling.
Unexpectedly, it was related to the new members of the Universal Alliance.
"Elder, after my persuasion during this period, Yan Fangzhou has agreed to join our alliance."
"But he said he wants to see our strength first."
Afraid of annoying Li Fan, Shang Tianci cautiously said.
"Yan Fangzhou?" Li Fan's expression changed.
He had some impression of this person, the young genius from the organization Shanhe Xuan of the Xuanhuang Realm mentioned by Shang Tianci.
At a young age, he had already reached the Nascent Soul stage. Moreover, he proposed the cruel idea of using the Xuanhuang scenes manifested in the Heaven Scene Gourd to forcibly burst the caves of other Nascent Soul cultivators.
His personality suited Li Fan's taste.
Li Fan showed a kind smile, "No problem, bring him over personally."
"At that time, I will entertain him well."
Shang Tianci was delighted, "Yan Fangzhou is much stronger than me. If he can join our alliance, it will definitely be more helpful to the cause of the Universal Alliance."
After saying that, he bid farewell to Li Fan and hurried to bring Yan Fangzhou.
Li Fan watched Shang Tianci's departing figure and shook his head slightly.
Then he teleported to the circular hall at the entrance of the alliance.
Looking at the empty hall, Li Fan contemplated for a moment, taking out the divine statue obtained from Mr. Bai's secret chamber.
